    Looked out of the window this morning .... and there .... in the corner .... was the car of the neighbours I despise :(

    I'd been hoping they weren't on holiday, but had done a moonlight flit. But no ... they're back. 2 weeks they were gone.

    Me too!

    Tough day.

    I wonder if the latter means that you hope for wet weather, when the rest of us are hoping for some sun?

    Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.     :)

    I do a lot of the time, to be honest.

    All quiet so far.... that'll change later, no doubt.

    I can only pray they all broke both their legs maybe :)

    Re turf ... yes, it is dry and sunny here :)
